What Do Nuptial Agreements Address?
When a couple discusses and acknowledges each other's financial, economic, and social wishes, it helps build trust in the relationship and eliminates confusion and tension in the event of divorce.
There are many reasons why a couple may choose to draft a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement. In most situations, couples enter into these agreements to define, in clear terms, how their marital and separate property assets and possessions will be divided if the marriage were to end.
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements also indicate how other familial obligations will be handled, such as:
- Spousal support
- Child support
- Child custody
- Inheritances, heirlooms, trusts, estates, etc.
- Pensions, stocks, bonds, retirement funds, etc.
- Enhanced or continued education
